Publication Ethics
The Journal of Education and Human Development takes the issue of ethics in publications very seriously.
Some of the many attributes of ethics that should be followed by all the people concerned, such as authors, reviewers, editors, and editorial board members, include integrity, accountability, and objectivity.
The results must be the result of original research and a true reflection of the research process conducted. Some of the unethical practices, such as plagiarism, duplicate publication, fabrication, falsification, and authorship, should be avoided in the manuscript.
